much simpler then magic, no blocking, nothing you can do on opponents turn. but mostly everything is the same and the good/broken cards/mechanics are pretty easy to spot when you've played mtg for a while.

also, for the matchmaking stuff, I doubt it's meant to compare the cards in your deck. it's probably just using that rank/medal thing. so it's a matchmaking based on a 'bad' ELO rating like magic used to have. if two people each played 100 games, one guy won 80% and the other 20%, they then shouldn't get paired against each other if there's other people in the queue. If you win like 50% of your games, I am sure you can easily get paired against someone winning 70-75% with a 'good' deck.

i felt so bad watching this gorgeous minion with charge and windfury and divine sheild...instantly get obliterated i couldnt stop laughing for the rest of the match

Ask Worldie for more pointers, but I can't count the number of times I was literraly swimming in cards, with a full smattering of minions on the table. You play *very* aggressively early on, since you can easily heal with your hero power, and if you took care to grab Vodoo doctors and "For Nazjataar" whats-her-name, you minions keep going and going long after they should have reasonably dropped.

If your opponent made the error of letting a Northshire Cleric alive, it can go so far as being forced to discard new drawn cards. I wasn't even AWARE we had a hand size limit before that

When that day comes, seek all the light and wonder of this world, and fight.

I have essentially only taunt minions with lot of health, and healing spells. Force enemy to smash his face into your minions, heal them back and slowly drain him down, taking down stronger minions with SWD cards.

My deck for reference:

Works against everything unless some horrible bad luck with cards.

Mages are nightmare though. I really think their class cards are borderline op, sooooo much aoe dmg. Can wipe up a whole lane of minions with 1 card with no downsides...

Really liking the Priest deck at the moment, been playing it a lot more but I can't imagine playing it without 2 Mind Controls, that has won me so many games, the number of end game Core Hounds I've snatched away with it only to have the opponent immediately conceed is beautiful

I've also found Mind Vision can be rather nice, sometimes you get junk but often it's good (and certainly better than the 1 point card you used) and best of all it throws a spanner in your opponents strategy when he suddenly has to deal with a card he can't expect a Priest to have.

Fact: as soon as I gave up druid deck and took Rogue instead, won 2 games at first attempt.

On this note, I think there's too many cards on the line of "kill a card without allowing any reaction".It's cool if some decks include one, but when every single deck has 2+ of those, it kinda feels frustrating to play a strong card just to get it destroyed the turn after.Atm when I play against rogue or priest I'm "scared" to use my buff cards cause I know they will kill the buffed minion the turn after.

I instead like the cards like the warlock's Corruption, "the minion dies the turn after" which allows you to at least make something out of that card before it's dead.

OTOH, I do like that situation - it means you can play a lot of mind games as to exactly *how* important, say, that Stormind Champion, versus just being a bait to let you drop something even worse later on. Or maybe he WANTS you to think it's a bait, and he wants it alive one turn to drop BoK and crush you?

When that day comes, seek all the light and wonder of this world, and fight.

Yeah, I actually like the mental games of trying to draw out an opponents 'killer' cards with fake outs before I drop the *real* thing he should be worried about.

Eh I prefer to save my "strong buff" cards when I want to give a huge hit to the enemy. Es play them all at once and hit him for 20+ dmg in1 turn, or take off a whole minion wave in 1 turn.

they were rather unexciting, along with the others that I had a choice of. that 3 mana 5/5 ape king idiot. but the choice was 2 others that were even worse. figured I'd give him a try, but he was almost always more of a backdraw with his bananas. think I should have picked nat pagle over it, at least that guy can be great if you have him turn 2 or turn 1 with the coin.the other was gruul, that 7/7 that gets +1+1 on each turn (your own and other). he was decent, but for an 8 drop I don't think he's all that special either. in a lot of games a champion of stormwind is better then that guy.

Yeah, i'm playing 2* Plat atm and it seems as if almost every single deck has a Ysera and a Deathwing now, plus any race appropriate ones (I had 5 Murlock rush decks in a row last night all different people, all with the murloc legendary). /sigh
